White tea Shang sample of the mid afternoon. Yes, I realize I’m drinking a lot of tea today and I have become close friends with the restroom because of it. My first jasmine white tea of Shang. This is a nice soft jasmine taste that isn’t overly perfumey. I’m getting a spearmint-like sensation at the tail end of the sip. The aftertaste has a slight drying effect with a hint of sweet hay note. This isn’t my favorite white jasmine tea, but it’s not bad by any means either, just doesn’t really stand out in my opinion.

Edit:
Just a quick side note that I just realized…this is my 100 tasting note!

So that’s who you got your new package from: Shang Tea. I’m glad you’re enjoying the teas. I vaguely remember reading some good things about them, as a company at least (Although I don’t remember seeing a company review written about them in under the ‘online’ Places).

@Invader Zim: be glad that he takes a sip at all. My husband rarely even does that. One time, he emphasized his point that HE DOESNOTLIKETEA by taking a sip and promptly going to the bathroom to vomit.

Ah well, I’m ok with that, because, all this tea in this house… all of it, it’s MINE! He can’t have it. My precious. MINE!

I’m an avid tea drinker, it’s what I drink all day and why I’m here. I don’t sweeten my teas except for the occasional iced tea or cold-brewed tea. I typically brew my teas with a brew basket in a 12 oz cup. If I brew another way I will always note it.
